I agree on all nd's points.
Including a URL to the ScriptInterpreterSource docs would certainly be
appropriate, as would be adding a section to this doc discussing the cgi
issue:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/platform/windows.html
Most of what you just put in the comments could go verbatim into a new
section of windows.html. (But, of course, we shouldn't be recommending
"registry" for most users.)
